I fixed both birth dates.

Thanks. I found another.

That third one is strange. It was edited to those values and the text in the biography deleted in the last couple of weeks with the comment "Assorted changes from new source", having previously having unsourced but entirely plausible 17th century dates and named Sarah (Lawrence) Riley. The editor replaced her as mother of two children with another profile and removed her marriage, though some of their biographies still point to this one under the original name of Sarah Lawrence.

To me,  it looks like the birth date is not correct, and only entered while emptying the profile.

On 3 November it was changed from Sarah (Lawrence) Riley (1637-1697) to Null (Lawrence) Null (1000-2000) with an empty biography. It's bizarre but clearly deliberate and not a typo, so probably best to ask the editor who did it.

I've sent them a message. They're pre-1500 certified, so they can fix it.
